Workday and SAP SuccessFactors run core HR for many large employers. Their recruiting modules hold years of requisitions and applicant records. Most TA teams still add specialist tools on top to find people who never applied, review heavy inbound volume, or capture interview feedback.
This guide compares five recruiting tools that document integrations with both systems: SeekOut, hireEZ, Gem, Juicebox (PeopleGPT), and Metaview. For each one, we cover what moves between the tool and your HCM, where the tool is strongest, and what it costs when pricing is published.
Which recruiting tools that integrate with Workday and SAP SuccessFactors should enterprise TA teams consider in 2026?
Enterprise TA teams on Workday or SAP SuccessFactors should look at five tools in 2026: SeekOut, hireEZ, Gem, Juicebox (PeopleGPT), and Metaview. All five document integrations with both systems, but each one is built for a different gap:
- SeekOut: sourcing, talent rediscovery, applicant evaluation, AI screening, and candidate integrity checks, connected to your HCM and available inside the AI your company already approved.
- hireEZ: outbound sourcing across the open web and partner networks, plus applicant ranking and AI pre-screens.
- Gem: sourcing, CRM, scheduling, and analytics, with its own ATS for teams that want an all-in-one platform.
- Juicebox (PeopleGPT): natural-language sourcing, with entry plans priced for individuals and small teams.
- Metaview: interview notes and structured feedback written back to the HCM, plus sourcing.
SeekOut publishes this guide, and we have listed our own product first. Details about the other tools come from each vendor’s public website and announcements as of October 2026. Check with each vendor for current features and pricing.
What are recruiting tools that integrate with Workday and SAP SuccessFactors?
These are tools that read from and write to Workday Recruiting or SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting. They handle work the HCM suite doesn’t focus on, such as finding candidates, reviewing applicants, screening, or capturing interview feedback. The HCM stays the system of record, so candidates, notes, and decisions end up on the requisition instead of in a separate silo.
The better tools judge candidates on skills, relevant experience, career trajectory, and transferable expertise. Then they hand that evidence back to the record your team already uses.
These tools fall into a few groups:
- Sourcing tools find people outside your ATS and resurface past applicants inside it.
- Evaluation and screening tools handle inbound applicants.
- Interview tools capture what happened in each conversation and write feedback to the requisition.
A few vendors also bundle a CRM or a full ATS. Knowing which group a tool belongs to tells you what its integration needs to carry.
Why should enterprise TA teams on Workday or SAP SuccessFactors add recruiting tools?
HCM suites are built to be the system of record, and recruiting work has outgrown manual review. Workday and SAP SuccessFactors center on core HR, payroll, and workforce data. Their recruiting modules manage requisitions, applications, and offers. Specialist tools add depth where recruiters spend most of their time: finding people, reading applications, and explaining who should move forward.
What hiring problems should recruiting tools for Workday and SAP SuccessFactors address?
- Role fit beyond keyword matching: Keyword filters miss people who describe the same skills in different words. A useful tool reads experience in context. It also searches past applicants already in the ATS, not just new ones.
- Volume and AI-assisted applications: Employ’s 2026 Hiring Benchmarks Report, based on data from 6,640 customers, found an average of 257.6 applications per job in 2025, up from 207.2 in 2024. In Criteria Corp’s 2026 Candidate Experience Report, 34% of job seekers said they had used AI to apply. In our view, that makes a résumé-only first pass less useful.
- Why a candidate is recommended: A ranked list without reasons is hard to defend to a hiring manager. Recruiters need the evidence behind each recommendation, in the place where they already work.
- Records that stay current: When the tool and the HCM disagree, recruiters re-enter data by hand and duplicates pile up. Sync that writes back to the requisition keeps one record of what happened.
Employ’s figures are based on data from 6,640 customers.
What should enterprise TA teams look for in recruiting tools that integrate with Workday and SAP SuccessFactors?
Look for depth of sync first, then for what the tool does with the data. A connector that only exports a list saves less time than one that writes evidence back to the requisition. The five criteria below separate a working integration from a logo on a partner page.
Which integration features matter, and how does SeekOut address them?
1. Role-relevant evidence and a predefined rubric. Agree on what good looks like before the search starts. The tool should score candidates against that rubric and show the evidence behind each score. Our SeekOut Sourcing uses job-specific workflows and rubrics. SeekOut Applicant Evaluation gives a plain-language explanation for each score and keeps complete decision logs for every evaluation.
2. Explainable recommendations and human decisions. Every ranking should come with reasons a recruiter can check. Our Responsible AI approach shows the reasoning and keeps people in charge. Recruiters make every advancement decision. SeekOut’s AI undergoes regular third-party bias audits, including an audit by FairNow. Its evaluations use no protected-class signals.
3. Coverage suited to the role. Some roles need outbound search. Others need fast review of a large applicant pool, and many need both. Check whether one tool covers sourcing, talent rediscovery, evaluation, and screening, or whether you’d connect several tools to the same HCM. Each extra connector is another sync for your HCM admin to configure and monitor. SeekOut covers each of those steps, and our recruiting tools work with your ATS.
4. Candidate experience, accessibility, and integrity. Screening should be short and clear, and it should work for candidates who need accommodations. Ask each vendor how candidates request one. Integrity checks matter more as AI-assisted applications grow. Our candidate integrity checks flag signs of fraud while applicants are being evaluated and screened.
5. ATS fit, security, and total cost. Ask three questions:
- Which plan includes two-way sync?
- What does your HCM admin need to configure?
- How does the vendor handle data?
SeekOut is SOC 2 Type II certified and GDPR compliant. It supports DPAs, encrypts customer data with AES-256, and runs on Microsoft Azure with annual third-party penetration testing. Details are on the Security page. In SeekOut MCP, every action runs as the signed-in user, with that user’s permissions. Customer data is not used to train AI models.
SeekOut supports bias audits and explainable scoring but does not guarantee compliance; confirm your obligations with counsel.
How can enterprise TA teams use recruiting tools with Workday and SAP SuccessFactors?
Your team can add one capability at a time and leave the HCM in place. Most teams start where the backlog hurts most, whether that’s sourcing for hard roles or review for high-volume ones. Each strategy below keeps Workday or SAP SuccessFactors as the record, and each one maps to a SeekOut product.
Strategy 1: Source outside the ATS and push candidates in
With SeekOut Sourcing, recruiters search external profiles and the ATS together, with results ranked against the role’s criteria. When a recruiter finds a match, one export creates the record in the HCM. In Workday, that can be a new prospect or a candidate tied to a live requisition. In SAP SuccessFactors, the export carries contact details and career history. Nobody re-keys a record, and the hiring manager sees the candidate where they already review applicants.
Strategy 2: Rediscover past applicants and silver medalists
SeekOut data shows 44% of great hires were already in the company’s ATS, which is why talent rediscovery is worth setting up early. SeekOut mirrors your ATS data every day and adds social links, work history, and education. Workday customers can also set up a Core Connector so candidate data refreshes more often.
Workday
SeekOut is a Workday Access Partner
- Export sends candidates as prospects or attaches them to an existing job
- Rediscovery reads candidates, attachments, requisitions, and postings through Workday’s APIs
- An optional Core Connector brings candidate data into SeekOut more often
SAP SuccessFactors
Export and rediscovery
- Profiles go in with contact details and work and education history
- Your SuccessFactors data is mirrored in SeekOut every day
- SeekOut adds social links, work history, and education, so recruiters can search and filter
Workday’s API has no duplicate check, so exporting the same candidate twice creates a second Workday profile.
Strategy 3: Work inside the AI your company already approved
SeekOut MCP brings SeekOut’s talent data and recruiting workflows into Microsoft 365 Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Amazon Quick. Without switching apps, recruiters can ask in plain language for:
- a market map
- a ranked shortlist with the evidence
- outreach drafts
By default, nothing spends a credit, writes to your ATS, or sends a message without asking first. Because it works through connectors IT already approved, there’s no second AI platform to stand up. The SeekOut AI Coworker is in early access.
Strategy 4: Screen before the first call
SeekOut AI Screening adds a 15-minute asynchronous interview that adapts follow-up questions to each candidate’s answers. Recruiters get strengths, gaps, and the full transcript before they speak with anyone. The first call starts from evidence.
How do the 5 recruiting tools compare for Workday and SAP SuccessFactors integration?
Compare purpose before price. A tool with a strong Workday partnership still won’t help much if your real gap is interview feedback. The table sums up what each vendor documents on its own pages.
| Platform | Primary recruiting use case | Documented Workday and SAP SuccessFactors integration | Published pricing and billing basis | Limits or verification caveats |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SeekOut | Sourcing, applicant evaluation, AI screening, and candidate integrity | Workday Access Partner; export to Workday and SAP SuccessFactors; rediscovery with daily data mirroring and enrichment | Sourcing Core $149 per month billed annually or $179 billed monthly; other plans custom and billed annually | Workday’s API has no duplicate check, so re-exporting a candidate creates a second profile |
| hireEZ | Outbound sourcing, applicant ranking, and AI pre-screens | Workday export and rediscovery with existing-profile detection; SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting listed on the SAP Store | Not published | SAP SuccessFactors sync details aren’t public |
| Gem | AI sourcing, CRM, scheduling, analytics, and its own ATS | Workday Innovation Partner with two-way sync; SAP PartnerEdge partner; hired candidates pushed to SuccessFactors | Custom, based on company FTE count; Startup Program for 1 to 10 FTEs | Gem’s SuccessFactors directory page describes a push of hired candidates |
| Juicebox (PeopleGPT) | Natural-language sourcing | Two-way integrations with both: job import, profile export, and existing-profile tags | Starter and Growth priced per seat per month; Business custom and billed annually | ATS sync requires the Business plan |
| Metaview | Interview notes and feedback, plus sourcing | Workday: feedback, notes, and sourced candidates written back; SAP SuccessFactors: notes attached as a PDF | Priced per user per month by product; full platform custom | No scorecard data through the SAP SuccessFactors integration |
Billing units differ, so line up quotes on the same basis: SeekOut and Juicebox publish self-serve plans priced per month. Metaview prices each product per user. Gem prices by company size. hireEZ quotes on request.
Ask every vendor which plan includes the Workday or SAP SuccessFactors integration you need.
Also check the direction of each integration. A push of new candidates, a pull of past applicants for search, and feedback written to the interview step are different jobs, and most teams need at least two of them. If a vendor documents only one direction, plan for manual work on the other.
Which 5 recruiting tools that integrate with Workday and SAP SuccessFactors should enterprise TA teams evaluate in 2026?
All five platforms document a connection to both Workday and SAP SuccessFactors, but they connect for different jobs. The profiles below focus on what actually moves between each tool and your HCM.
1SeekOut
SeekOut brings recruiting intelligence inside the AI your company already approved, so TA teams build stronger pipelines, faster. SeekOut is a Workday Access Partner. Our SAP SuccessFactors integration covers both export and rediscovery.
Key Features
Sourcing runs AI search across profiles that include GitHub, patents, and publications, plus your own ATS. Job-specific workflows, rubrics, and personalized multi-step outreach are built in.
Applicant evaluation gives every applicant a score with a plain-language explanation. AI screening returns strengths, gaps, and the full transcript, and integrity checks run during both steps.
Workday and SAP SuccessFactors Offerings
Workday export sends candidates to Workday as prospects or attaches them to an existing job. Workday rediscovery reads candidates, attachments, requisitions, and postings through Workday’s APIs. An optional Core Connector setup brings candidate data into SeekOut more often.
For SAP SuccessFactors, profiles go in with contact details and work and education history. Your SuccessFactors data is mirrored in SeekOut every day. SeekOut adds social links, work history, and education to those records, so recruiters can search and filter them.
Pros
Workday Access Partner status comes with both export and rediscovery. One vendor covers sourcing, rediscovery, applicant evaluation, screening, and integrity checks. SeekOut MCP puts the same intelligence inside the AI assistants your company already uses.
Cons
The self-serve plan includes ATS export, but rediscovery from Workday or SAP SuccessFactors needs a custom-priced plan. Workday’s API has no duplicate check. Exporting the same candidate twice creates a second Workday profile, so recruiters should check before they send.
Pricing
SeekOut Sourcing Core, the self-serve plan, is $149 per month billed annually ($1,788 per year) or $179 billed monthly, with a 14-day free trial and no credit card required. SeekOut Sourcing, SeekOut Sourcing + Integration, and SeekOut Full Recruiting Funnel (which includes applicant evaluation and AI screening) are custom-priced and billed annually. See Pricing for current plans.
2hireEZ
hireEZ began as an outbound sourcing tool and now also ranks inbound applicants and runs AI voice and chat pre-screens, according to its platform page. Its sourcing searches the open web and partner networks across 45+ platforms. The same page cites more than 50 ATS partners.
Key Features
Sourcing covers 45+ platforms across the open web and partner networks. Resume screening evaluates applicants against the job description. Applicant Screening leads candidates through pre-screen questions in an AI-led conversation, then gives recruiters conversation highlights and a job-fit analysis.
Workday and SAP SuccessFactors Offerings
On the Workday side, hireEZ syncs candidates to Workday as applicants, as prospects, or into specific job stages. Fields are mapped, and PDF resumes can ride along (hireEZ Workday integration). Open jobs, stages, candidates, and tags sync back into hireEZ for rediscovery. Before export, hireEZ tells users whether a candidate already has a Workday profile.
For SAP, hireEZ’s SAP Store listing says it works with SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting. The listing says hireEZ funnels sourced candidates into SAP and enriches the existing talent pool.
Pros
The Workday integration covers both export and rediscovery, with duplicate detection. Sourcing, applicant ranking, and pre-screens sit in one product.
Cons
Its public pages don’t detail which fields flow back from SAP SuccessFactors.
Pricing
Quote-based; not published.
3Gem
Gem pitches consolidating ATS, CRM, and sourcing into one platform. It started in outbound sourcing and CRM. Its site now offers an all-in-one platform with its own ATS and AI ranking of inbound applicants.
Key Features
Gem’s AI Sourcing Agent searches 800M+ profiles, with omnichannel outreach across email, SMS, and InMail (Gem AI Sourcing). Its AI App Review Agent ranks applicants and explains why each candidate fits. Scheduling, analytics, and an AI Fraud Detection Agent sit alongside the ATS and CRM.
Workday and SAP SuccessFactors Offerings
Gem is a Workday Innovation Partner and maintains a two-way sync with Workday. Gem says application updates and stage movements sync within minutes (Gem on its Workday integration).
In January 2023, Gem announced its SAP PartnerEdge membership and SAP Store listing. It described a two-way integration with SuccessFactors Recruiting (Gem announcement). When a candidate is marked Hired in the Gem ATS, their details are pushed into SAP SuccessFactors for onboarding (Gem integration directory).
Pros
Gem holds formal partner status with both Workday and SAP. Sourcing, CRM, scheduling, analytics, and an ATS come under one contract.
Cons
Pricing for larger companies is custom and requires a quote. Gem’s SuccessFactors directory page describes a push of hired candidates, so confirm what else syncs in your setup.
Pricing
Gem + Your ATS and Gem All-in-One are custom-priced based on company FTE count. The Startup Program for companies with 1 to 10 FTEs is listed at $130 per month, billed yearly. Companies under 30 employees get Gem All-in-One free for six months (Gem pricing).
4Juicebox (PeopleGPT)
Juicebox, also known as PeopleGPT, centers on natural-language search across 800 million profiles. Its help center documents two-way integrations with both Workday and SAP SuccessFactors. Those integrations come with the Business plan, per its pricing page.
Key Features
Recruiters search in plain English instead of Boolean strings. Profiles can export automatically after a shortlist, a sequence step, or an interested reply. An AI Agent add-on is available on paid plans.
Workday and SAP SuccessFactors Offerings
Recruiters can pull a Workday or SAP SuccessFactors job description into Juicebox to start a search. Profiles save to either system with contact details, current company and job, and profile URLs. Each export links to the matching job. Juicebox also tags people who already exist in the ATS and shows the last modified date. That helps recruiters avoid contacting the same person twice.
Pros
Low entry price for individuals and small teams. Setup docs for both systems are public and specific.
Cons
ATS and CRM integrations require the Business plan, which is custom-priced and billed annually only.
Pricing
Starter costs $99 or $119 per seat per month, depending on billing, for one seat. Growth costs $179 or $199 per seat per month, depending on billing, for up to five seats. Business has custom pricing, billed annually, and includes ATS and CRM integrations. The AI Agent add-on is $199 per agent per month.
5Metaview
Metaview describes AI that handles notes, scorecards, and follow-ups, with agents for sourcing and application review. Its help center lists 42 ATS and CRM integrations, including Workday, SAP SuccessFactors, Oracle Recruiting Cloud, and iCIMS (Metaview integrations). In May 2026, Metaview connected its sourcing agent to Workday. Teams can now rediscover past candidates and sync sourced candidates back automatically (Metaview announcement).
Key Features
Notes capture interviews and turn them into summaries and scorecards. A sourcing agent curates a shortlist and drafts outreach in your tone. Application review is part of the same platform.
Workday and SAP SuccessFactors Offerings
In Workday, a recruiter clicks Submit Feedback and Metaview sends questionnaire answers, competency ratings, and comments in one submission. Notes attach to the candidate profile as a PDF (Metaview Workday setup). Recruiters can also search the ATS for potential candidates and add newly sourced people to Workday.
In SAP SuccessFactors, notes attach to the job application as a PDF, with a link in the Comments tab. Scorecard data isn’t available through this integration (Metaview SAP SuccessFactors setup).
Pros
Structured interview feedback lands in Workday without retyping. Modular plans let teams buy notes or sourcing on their own.
Cons
The SAP SuccessFactors integration doesn’t carry scorecard data. The full Agentic Recruiting Platform is custom-priced through sales.
Pricing
Notetaker is free for 25 calls per month, or $60 per user per month for Pro with unlimited calls. Sourcing is free for the first 100 profiles. Sourcing Pro is $100 per user per month for 200 profiles, and Max is $300 per user per month for unlimited profiles. The Agentic Recruiting Platform has custom pricing (Metaview pricing).
How should enterprise TA teams evaluate recruiting tools for Workday and SAP SuccessFactors?
Start with the role, then evaluate the software. Before any demo, write down the hiring gap and the HCM records the tool must read or write. Then score every vendor against the five criteria above. Weight them before the first demo, so a polished presentation doesn’t quietly rewrite your priorities. Bring your HCM admin and someone from IT security into the first call. They’ll ask about API access, integration users, and data handling sooner than recruiters would.
What evidence should buyers request during a pilot?
- Run the pilot on two or three live requisitions in your own tenant, not a sandbox demo. Score every vendor on the same requisitions and the same criteria.
- Ask the vendor to move a candidate into Workday or SAP SuccessFactors. Change something in the HCM and see how long the tool takes to show it. Check how duplicates are handled and what your HCM admin had to configure. Get the vendor’s bias audit summary and security documents in writing. Compare the time recruiters spend per requisition before and after.
- Ask recruiters and hiring managers to note where they had to leave the HCM to finish a task. Those moments show where an integration is thinner than the demo suggested, and they’re easier to fix before you sign than after.
When should enterprise TA teams choose SeekOut for Workday and SAP SuccessFactors recruiting?
Choose SeekOut when you want sourcing, talent rediscovery, and applicant review connected to the HCM you already run. It fits teams whose recruiters need to find people who never applied and keep up with inbound volume, without adding a separate vendor for each step.
It also fits teams that want recruiting work inside Microsoft 365 Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Amazon Quick without a long IT project. Teams can start with one tool, such as sourcing with rediscovery, and add applicant evaluation later.
Other tools on this list go deeper in specific areas:
- Interview feedback: If that’s your main gap, Metaview’s Workday feedback integration is built for it.
- Replacing your ATS: If you plan to replace it as well, Gem’s all-in-one package is designed for that.
- Low-cost sourcing: For a small team, Juicebox’s entry plans cost less.

What do enterprise TA teams ask about recruiting tools that integrate with Workday and SAP SuccessFactors?
Why do recruiting teams using Workday or SAP SuccessFactors need additional recruiting tools?
Workday and SAP SuccessFactors are built as systems of record for HR data, and their recruiting modules focus on running the process. Specialist tools add outbound search, rediscovery of past applicants, faster applicant review, and interview capture. The right one writes its results back to the HCM, so the record stays in one place.
Which recruiting tools integrate with both Workday and SAP SuccessFactors in 2026?
All five tools in this comparison document integrations with both systems, but their partner status differs:
SeekOut is a Workday Access Partner. hireEZ is listed on the SAP Store for SuccessFactors Recruiting. Gem is both a Workday Innovation Partner and an SAP PartnerEdge partner. Juicebox and Metaview document their integrations in their own help centers.
How does SeekOut’s integration with Workday work for sourcing and rediscovery?
It runs in two directions. For sourcing, SeekOut sends candidates to Workday as prospects or attaches them to an existing job through the Put_Candidate API, using an Integration System User your Workday admin sets up. For rediscovery, SeekOut reads data through APIs including Get_Candidates, Get_Candidate_Attachments, Get_Job_Requisitions, Get_Job_Postings, and Get_References. An optional Core Connector: Candidate Outbound integration keeps candidate data more current. SeekOut’s help center says the Workday candidate index updates every four hours once the first import is done.
What is the difference between a sourcing integration and a screening integration with Workday or SAP SuccessFactors?
A sourcing integration works with people who haven’t applied yet, or with past applicants. New prospects go into the HCM, and existing records come out for rediscovery. A screening integration works with people who already applied. It reads their applications and helps recruiters decide who to interview, and some interview tools also post feedback to the requisition. SeekOut covers both sides, with SeekOut Sourcing for search and rediscovery and SeekOut Applicant Evaluation & AI Screening for applicants.
Does SeekOut include applicant evaluation and AI screening in its Workday and SAP SuccessFactors integration?
Yes. Applicant evaluation and AI screening come with SeekOut Full Recruiting Funnel, which is custom-priced, or as an add-on to SeekOut Sourcing. SeekOut Sourcing Core, the self-serve plan, covers sourcing only. SeekOut Applicant Evaluation connects to your ATS, so it works from the same applicants your recruiters already manage in Workday or SAP SuccessFactors.
